Tips on how to cope with the Swedish winter darkness
Many students struggle with the lack of light in Sweden during the winter months. However, these feelings are normal, and we shouldn´t be afraid of them. There are several ways to make this time a bit easier to get through. The Student Health Centre has put together a list of advice on how to cope with the darkness.
